True

[@joeskienz]

ABs XV were far too inaccurate and made too many mistakes. Horrible refereeing for both teams though. The rucks and mauls were a complete and utter mess. Referee was allergic to the Barbarians and didn't want to give them a yellow card - DMac shoved out of the way, a no-arms tackle, an intentional knock-on, and multiple ruck infringements in their red zone all late in the game. Typical inconsistent European refereeing.

@@cspace1234nz Beauden, Brodie & Whitelock had sabbaticals and walked straight back into the ABs, so it depends on who you are. Patrick got called back "early" due to injuries.
